If America's Grand Jurors
were made aware of their power and their duty, they could keep a close watch on
all elected officials and public "servants."The constitutional empowerment of Grand Jury independence appears in
Amendment 5: "No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or
otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a grand jury,
except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the militia, when in
actual service in time of war or public danger."

Unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand
Jury.

Unlike petit juries, grand juries do
not convict or acquit - they merely investigate and accuse or dismiss. Grand
Juries evolved to shield the individual from unjust or malicious prosecution by
the government. The Grand Jury decides whether or not the target of the
investigation will be indicted and go to trial. The court cannot limit the
members of the Grand Jury in their legitimate investigation.A presentment is an accusation initiated by the
Grand Jury itself, independent of any agent of government. It is an instruction
that an indictment be drawn. Presentments can stop the rampant obstruction of
justice by police and prosecutors. Government can be forced to obey the law and
kidnapping and racketeering under color of law can be stopped. Grand Juries
have the power.A Grand Jury has
the right to exclude anyone, including prosecutors, from its meetings, any
statutes to the contrary notwithstanding, but we have foolishly permitted our
Grand Juries to become rubber stamps for prosecutors. Judicial construction
of a lot of secrecy nonsense makes the Grand Jury inaccessible to persons who
wish to report a felony without alerting government agents. Grand Jury
inaccessibility acts as a very effective shield for corrupt officials.America's fundamental problem is legal rather
than political. If we want to force government to obey the uncorrupted law of
the land, then demanding that Grand Juries be fully informed of their power and
their duty is the best place to begin.More than half the states do not use Grand Juries.* Their excuse is that the Grand Jury has become a
rubber stamp for the prosecutor. However, their own constructed nonsense is
responsible and they damned well know it. Prosecutors have usurped control of
Grand Juries without a whisper of protest from America's great legal minds. I
wonder why? Police and
prosecutors obstruct justice with impunity because citizens have no open channel
to report crimes to their Grand Jury. Sovereign citizens also lack the knowledge
necessary to use the legal system without the interference of a lawyer. We
must reclaim our legal turf.Officials
are insulated from discovery and prosecution. Grand Juries, accessible to the
people, along with mandamus writs and the recording of an action at law and
declaratory judgment against scoundrels, incompetents and criminals in
government can remedy this evil. Every Sovereign Citizen of the Republic
should be aware of the power available to him and know how to use it.

* It should be
noted that wherein more than half the states do not have or use Grand
Juries, that constitutionally, anyone in those more than half the states
could also commit open multiple murders in front of hundreds of witnesses and/or
any other sort of infamous [felonious] crimes and
never be held to answer. That means they could not even be tried for their
crimes, much less be convicted or acquitted.

Let's read that 5th Amendment again,
"No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or
otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a grand
jury,..." One could imagine what this defense would do to our burgeoning
prison population in those states! Where are the defense attorneys and the
courts on this? Elimination of the Grand Jury system cannot be an
option, as Grand Juries ARE the power of, and belong to, uniquely the
People!
